This was forwarded to me. Interesting timeline that the "news" fails to make the connection on. From the Plain Dealer (Cleveland, OH); (Emphasis mine) Former priest gets life sentence for raping 8-year-old boy

A 64-year-old Akron man was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole Tuesday for raping an 8-year-old boy in 1992. Joseph N. Williams, a former Catholic priest and attorney, was found guilty by a Cuyahoga County jury last week on kidnapping and rape charges following a two-day trial.

He raped the 8-year-old in 1992 at a nursing home in Warrensville Heights, where the boy's family had gathered to visit a family member. The jury also learned that Williams sexually molested a 12-year-old boy beginning in 1984 in another county.

Williams was a priest from 1969 to 1976 and served as a chaplain at Lorain Catholic High School. He then left the church and became a lawyer in the 1980s. He retired in 1998, prosecutor's spokesman Ryan Miday said.OK... he abandoned the priesthood and the Church in 1976 and became a lawyer, a profession he practiced until 1998. The crimes were committed in 1984 and 1992.

Does the paper report: Local lawyer convicted of child rape? No, of course not. The fact that he was a priest and abandoned the Faith 16 years earlier is a much juicier headline. Hell, they may as well have said Former Paper Boy Rapes 8-Year-Old.
